Events
England: Little Gidding 1 December 2018: Nicholas Ferrar Day
'Nicholas Ferrar is commemorated in the Calendar of the Church of England on the date of his death. Each year, on the Saturday nearest that date, a commemoration is held at Little Gidding at the church where he and his family worshipped, and outside which he was buried in 1637. The Revd Mandy Flaherty, Priest in charge, will preside at a celebration of the Eucharist at 10.30am, following which the Chair of the Friends of Little Gidding, Canon Simon Kershaw, will give a talk in Ferrar House on the "topography of Little Gidding" in the time of the Ferrars, and what we can learn from the landscape today. After lunch, the AGM of the Friends of Little Gidding will take place in the House.'
